Inquisitor wakes up with no trousers: It's those blasted jeanstealers again!
That’s actually funny as shit bro
"Those darn pantaloons-stealers!"
@@unkelTP Pantaloon Pinchers
Dang underpants gnomes
Get out, you silly bastard, hahaha, that really is a good one
What's crazy is at one point there was a Gene stealer cult rebellion, an Ork attack and a Chaos incursion all at the same time for one planet.
Beneath his blackened helm, a slight grin formed on Khorne's normally rage-locked visage lol
Gork and Mork provide only the finest scraps for their followers, because they are green gods and therefore the best.
At that point if you’re a human on that planet just give up bruh
That sounds like something that can be reenacted through the tabletop war game.
Hell of a party.
I always love how the Genestealer Cults have such a ‘Shadow Over Innsmouth’ vibe to them… and are the harbingers of an ancient and unknowable entity
Or "village of the damned"
That chill in your spine when you hear "their main invasion fleet is said to STILL BE ON THE WAY."
1:06 Visibly confused Tau
One of the more unsetteling aspects of Genestealers is that they were first encounted long befor the hive fleets arived, having been on the moons of Ymgarl for longer than Imperial records existed, and acting as the opponets for on of the first 40K games, Space Hulk.
They did manage to infest at least one entire Space Marine chapter. The Scythes of the Emperor, an Ultramarine successor chapter, was overrun by Genestealers. They still exist but all the original marines are dead. Only newly introduced primaris marines make up the chapter now.
Well, if something happened to one of the Utramarine successor chapters, no one would notice it in the sea of blue
Just read that one, Belisarius cawl great work I believe. Chilling stuff that.
@@sylph4252 These guys wore dark grey and yellow luckily.
"Silly buggins, I don't wear no jeans. I wears cargo pants, lots of pocketsses, plenty of room for more dakka and stikkbombz"
I think Genestealer Cults has the most potential for great story. Imagine a Lovecraftian conspiracy thriller with any possible setting that can be one of imperial worlds.
Especially with the addition of mindf*ckers like Lictors.
There is a book named "Genestealer Cults" by Peter Fehervari, it has some conspiracy thriller vibes in it
Everyone's a gangsta until the hiveworld locals start turning bald and praying
What’s this new fashion trend? Why do my neighbors all have purple skin now?
"hiveworld locals start turning bald and praying" - you mean "praying to something else than God Emperor"
@@es68951everytime that shop vendor glances at me I get lost in his eyes, really weird
The Church of Starry Wisdom shall call forth the Star Children and show the false Emperor true divinity!
Nice to see you covering these guys!
Four armed Emperor is bae
Heresy.
Cthulhu ftaghn
_There is a Xeno hybrid among us_
And she’s lookin pretty cute, too
And it's **ME**
Yes, hi. You called?
Yeah and they're fuckin' sick
Sus
"Do they steal jeans?"
"Yer gonna die."
One of my favorite armies in Warhammer and my main on the tabletop, they are really underrated. Thank you for this video.
I don't play tabletop but I adore Genestealers in lore and would love to know what you like about them on tabletop my dude. Give me the rundown if you're up for it
@Pragabond genestealers are my secondary army (Tyranids first). But GSC (genestealer cults) are awesome at hit and run sort of ambush tactics on the table top, often appearing from off table popping up in the middle of the brawl in a move known as "deep strike" and then throw massive amounts of bombs and flame throwers. There's more to it but ther is a lot of high level play that goes into making GSC work.
I remember when genestealers were part of core tyranids. There was the option of including a cult among your 'nids as a 'mercenary troop'. I had a squad of genestealers eat their way through a squad of Sisters of Battle once. Glory days...
@@PragabondThey are an unconventional army specializing in guerilla tactics like hit and run, ambushes, baits etc. appearing from reserves and deep strike from unusual angles with ABSURD damage potential. They are difficult to play cause their range isn't that great and are very easy to drop though.
I feel like a book about someone who gets possessed by a genestealer would be an absolute banger.
I love the hp lovecraft narrations and 40k videos you do and it’d be cool if you ever returned to the mythology or dungeons and dragons videos as well.
Playing Warhammer 40k: rogue trader, perfect video.
"The real problem are yet to arrive." I like that quote. Great video!
Still hoping these guys will get added to Darktide one day
Nothing worse than getting my favorite pair of genes stolen.
Every post you make brings joy. Thank you TES
Orks: Dat dere's a purple Ork! Sumtin’s wrong, none of da Boyz have ever seen a purple Ork!
YOOO its 3AM and im looking for WH40K lore to sleep too! Impeccable timing!
3am. A new video. I can finally get lore and fall asleep
Same 🎉
It is so nice hearing a good human narrating voice doing 40K lore. I can't stand the AI generated David Attenborough voice reading text taken from some Codex or Wikipedia.
That's on you there are plenty of good warhammer channels some with some voice actor
I usually listen to these at night when I'm nodding off, but it's nice to wake up to!
I'm here for any kind of Exploring Series and oh my God am I always here for Genestealer anything
I'm here for tyranid anything. Anything that involves my adorable space bugs is a good thing.
What would happen if the entire Imperium of Man becomes fully aware of the existence of genestealer cults?
When you give the Xenomorphs the Grim Dark treatment...
13:00 interesting seeing Adrian T pop up in this, he's the author of one of my all time favorite sci-fi books (completely unrelated to 40k).
He also wrote a second Genestealer story set on a forge world called “Day of Ascension” which is really excellent.
I like these faction dives - I wonder if we could get a similar series about the colleges of magic which existed in the pre-AoS Warhammer World?
With the release of Space Marine II being so popular I wish he’d reconsider doing more 40k videos and see how they perform.
Best part of monday morning! ❤
You see what happens when you take a small break? It's taken 11 days for UA-cam to put this in my feed despite me watching just about every TES video ever dropped and this video has trash view numbers so yoh know it's doing that to everyone.
I'm sorry that YT is like this mang, it's good to have you back.
OH BOY ITS 3 AM
I like the more subtle of the Genestealer cults such as the "Jormangandr" and the "twisted helix".
Please dominate the 40k UA-cam lore market. I absolutely love majorkill but you sir are the OG and warhammer is the new SCP
Genestealer cults are awesome, I love their lore and potential kitbash fuel.❤
I just wish they were easier to paint.😅
Excellent video man 🤩
I was just thinking of checking your channel for new 40k lore stuff and BOOOM you drop one 😂
Personal theory. Some old ones escaped the milkyway before the enslaver/psyknoia mega invasions at the close of the war in heaven.
And nids have come to quiet the warp again
Warrior Tier made a great audio drama depicting a genestealer uprising from the perspective of an average hiver. I highly recommend giving it a watch.
Honestly, if I was born in the 40k universe - yeah, sign me up to be a genestealer cult member. An innate sense of purpose, camaraderie untainted by petty differences, telepathic communion with a being I am 100% convinced is divine, and a chance to watch a hive noble be eaten by a four-armed angel: yes, yes I do think I will sign on that dotted line instead of staying some kind of depressed techno-fedual serf.
Yeah same here
And a non-zero chance that your biomass ends up being recycled as a part of a Hierophant. Which is pretty cool!
Here, Inquisitor.
This heretic right here, Inquisitor
I like this one. Thanks, Warhammer 40K and The Exploring Series. I can't think of a specific comment about this video, but I appreciate it all the same. I want to listen to this sometime again in the near future to determine whether or not the narrator implies whether the Genesteelers are really evil with a full conscience.
My favourite army. In a game where the most common generic infantry wears ritually maintained laser-proof future space armor and wields basically an SMG that fires artillery shells, these guys drive converted mining equipment into battle wielding shotguns and construction tools.
Everyone talks up the IG/AM as this great underdog army, but these guys are the real deal.
I miss my friend @GauntsGhostGuy, and hope hes ok
Can't wear anything in Hive City Dee-Troyit 😢
Something I really like about your channel is that you never point out video's you've previously made or pointing people to them, at least not too often. Like here, instead of telling people to watch your previous video where you go on the basics of the Tyranids you briefly summarize it here. It helps keep the flow and immersion of the video and I really appreciate that, plus it's friendly to people that may be new to the channel!
Keep up the good work!
Always coming back to this channel brings peace. The storytelling is spot on, thanks for the content.
Me when exploring said foundation "ahhh he said it!"
My JEANS WILL BE PROTECTED!
Love your videos Manggg, hope to see the Slaanesh video soon!
The genesteallers are to normal Tyranids as Slaanesh and Tzeench forces are to Khorne Chaos Marines. 40K really needs more of these kinds of factions, which share affiliation with an existing group but move the conflict into a whole other theater of war.
I like to think that the reason orks are so resistant to Gene-stealer outbreaks is that the hybrid(s) end up being too calm and Not-Prone-To-Violence cause that's what usually works for most other species but with the orks it just ends up getting the hybrid beaten to death by the other orks for being an unorky loser who isn't green.
please keep the 40k content coming!
I love you when you talk about warhammer 40k this episode will be the best episode I ever watch
If memory serves, there's one account of an Avatar of Khaine being infected, resulting in a Patriarch of Khaine. I know little else about it aside from those surface-level tidbits
Good stuff! Sounds like he's setting up for a Tyranid invasion video next, when the Fleet arrives!
Love this channel
It's funny how tyranids are basically the ahnilation wave
OH BOY! New TES video.
I heard rumors that before the Genesteelers the Tyranids bred and utilized the Zoats as a vanguard unit until they got too independent?
YIPPEEE
Oh neato! Another one of my favorite creators talking about this amazing faction in WH. 🎉
Ohhhh yes another 40k video time to get comfy
Something I don't really understand about the genestealers is why they're needed. Maybe someone with better understanding can tell, but as far as I am aware the hive fleets are pretty much unstoppable outside of big events to make other factions look good, so having a cult that takes decades to spread enough to grant an amount of soldiers that is miniscule compared to the swarm and its imperial guard opponents seems a bit moot.
And yes, the subterfuge the cult can partake in is certainly helpful, but you'd think more terrible, specialized beasts like Lictors could overwhelm and destroy the leadership, infrastructure and communications of a planet if they were sent en masse.
pls keep adding to spotify, i rly hate youtube but i love falling asleep to you
*OH BOY! IT’S 3AM!!*
UPVOTE EVERYONE!!!
I hope you do a video on the Imperial Navy soon!
Bald and obsessed with family.
If the Amazon Warhammer series has Genestealers, they SHOULD be all interpreted by Vin Diesel.
Careful around them, they'll steal the pants right off ya!
All I can think about is the TTS episodes where the inquisition lady keeps yelling about Genestealers.
Top 5
Upon listening to this video one more time I had been wondering whether Genesteelers were more like evil people or more like dumb animals who do heinous things in their nature but are still dumb animals. The host of this video described Genesteelers' intellience and methods and goals and I decided that rather than Genesteelers being aliens that function by their nature albeit to a complex extreme. I decided that chances are these beings are just plain conscientiously evil or at least bad. Good video though.
Nice been missing the 40k videos
I'd really like to explore this universe but I have no earthly clue as to where to begin, any suggestions?
If u like these videos? : luetin09, Scholars lore, and Arch. they have been doing lore videos for longer so have a larger backlog which you can kinda just jump into and figure out what things are as you go, stuff gets brought up repeatedly and referenced a lot
Honestly if your not going to be reading or listening to the books I'd recommend looking up stuff you you think is cool there are so many warhammer content creators many of which who have been doing this for years that your garentied to find pretty much anything
@@leafloaf3232 And, and Major Kill for a vulgar Australian's take. Boldemort is also great.
I jumped in with the novel Xenos by Dan Abnett. It's the first book in a trilogy dealing with an Inquisitor.
Isyander and Koda make every faction interesting, even if they get some of the lore wrong sometimes. It's a good way to begin.

2 am oooraaah
Thank god gsc will be getting a codex in summer.
Right off the bat, LOTS OF PARNOIA.
Faith in Father.
The Genestealers are more like *The Strain* (TV Series 2014-2017) 😁👽☣🪱
Hey iv allways love you 40k content i hope you will do more
Yuo*
Do you plan on making a video about Chaos Cultists?
Balam Industries sponsored field trip to Terra.
Space Cancer.
May the four armed emperor protect us
The Emperor has four arms
18:21 oh yeah and they disconnect you right has you jump into the amino acid pits, apparently. Of course that’s adeptus ridiculous so I have no idea if it’s true
Nids don't suffer perils of the warp. There's nothing to gain from 'disconnecting' someone from hive or brood mind. When ravener swarms return to the pits, they aren't disconnected, so why would their human cults be? Inquisition propaganda indeed.
Unless there actively joking adeptus ridiculous is fairly accurate
@@magnolia1253it's happened in the lore and the meta reson is gw wants to make it darker
Tyranids are great 👍
HOW TO SPOT ORKS WOT AREN'T ORKS:
do they feel "different"?
Get da boyz
Yes!! More 40k vids please!!
They are my favorite faction in 40k.
I think it´s time for some Zombie SCP-s, haven´t seen any on this channel for a long time :)
More 40k please
Hivefleet leviathan jew checking in 🗿
